Bears may react defensively by woofing, yawning, salivating, growling, snapping their jaws, and laying their ears back

bears usually retreat before people are aware of them. Their hearing is more sensitive than a human's, and their broad, soft foot pads allow them to move quietly downwind where they can best identify their dangers.
